I figure Todd is going to have to come back into the picture sooner or later. They couldn't just let his story go unanswered, could they? He knows way too much for us to assume he gets out of the business without a peep. I wonder if he mastered the ways of cooking meth from Walt before he walked away.

-None of it was real. Walt imagined all of it while dying of cancer. Fans are outraged. Society crumbles.
-Season proceeds as normal until the last episode, in which all actors are replaced with dogs. Directors attempt to coerce the dogs into performing the script.
-Huell is revealed to be a drug lord with even greater discretion than Walt. He murders both Walt and Jesse to eliminate the competition.
-That homeless guy Jesse just gave like $10,000 is revealed to be Gus' forgotten brother. He uses the money to clean himself up and murder both Walt and Jesse for revenge.

Would anyone else prefer a really, really dark ending? Walt kidnapping his family and killing them in a mass suicide for example.

I always wanted to see Walt as a true successful, cold drug lord, controlling whole west coast, fighting wth rival cartels and dea, and still being a mysterious Heisenberg to criminal underworld. Those posters with him sitting next to a huge-ass pile of money were pretty promising, unfortunately all we get is a family drama and not enough Heisenberg. I can only hope last few eposides change everything.

Here's my theory of how it all goes down. My theory might suck but it's just my theory.

Hank will sooner or later can't take that the fact that his own brother-in-law is a big drug lord and take matters in his own hands and goes loose cannon cop mode. He starts to go on a hunt for Walt. Possibly goes to his house and fuck shit up to reach him. Remember that one of the few last episodes of season 5 when Hank mentions about his old job when he was younger? About how he used to spray mark trees and spray them? I think the graffiti on the wall in Walt's house was from Hank. I think it symbolizes how he was gonna hunt down Walter.

Also it will show to the point that Hank goes fucking ballistic when he does get to his house. And there's no denying that even some of characters like Skyler, Walt Jr., and yes even Holly would die in the middle of a situation with Walt and Hank possibly guns blazing at each other. So after that event ends, it leads Walter to run away and keep his head down from Hank. As you can see from future scenes, Walt grew some hair and possibly his on the dead end of dying from cancer. POSSIBLY. I think the reason he has the LMG is a bigger reason than Hank. Walter probably did something and his gonna face down with someone or something. Might even involve Jesse Pinkman and Hank together. And the ricin? It might be his backup In case if his whole plan failed. Anything after that I can't think of anything else.

I've seen episode summaries, I'm convinced I know what's gonna lead up to the ending, just not sure what the actual ending will be.

Jesse's guilt becomes too much, and he eventually snaps, forcing Walt to either kill him or pin the Heisenberg deal on him. Hank corners Walt to the point where he fakes his death, and Hank is satisfied even though he knows in his gut that Walt is still out there. Walter, wanting to raise be with his kids, decides to poison Hank with the ricen, when Ted shows up, threatening to blackmale Skyler is they don't give him more money. Skyler contacts Walt, who comes up with a plan to blame Ted for a crime that'll see him behind bars for good, he then poisons hank and frames ted for it. But before he gets poisoned Hank lets Jesse go, because he knows he isn't Heisenberg.

My guess is the ending is Jesse killing Walt, and confessing everything to the police.

What about Declan? The guy that was Gus' competitor and met with Walt to make a deal with Jesse and Mike with the methylamine in "Say my name." Surely he will probably pop up or something, or perhaps work with Lydia in producing meth

Sweet, I finally got something right.

I thought Marie and Skyler were going to go full out cat fight for a moment there, but that would have been overboard.

I wonder what Jesse will end up confessing next week, maybe about killing that kid, since his conscience must be really guilty.

I suppose another cartel could step in, but I think that the one that was affiliated with Gus is no longer active.

I agree. I don't think they're going to bring in another cartel with 7 episodes left.

He's happy no doubt that Walter has quit, don't forget, that's what he wanted in the first place. Now the operation is back to the way he likes them.

Compared to last week's episode this week's episode was kind of a drag, but it was good to see that Lydia, Todd and possibly his uncle will be important pieces to the endgame. I can't wait to see what's going to happen with Jesse and Hank in the questioning room.

I thought overall this episode was more enjoyable. We got to see more of the conflict between the Schraders and Whites; the scene with Holly was incredibly tense. Plus it set many things into motion, such as Lydia + Todd, we've found out that Walt has cancer, Skyler has aligned herself with Walt instead of Hank.

Not to mention we got some sweet Huell action. I'm pretty sure this episode had the most lines for Huell so far this season. Also this was the only episode (I think) where Walt Jr. didn't make a single appearance. Where the hell was he, Denny's?
